Understanding Optical Character Recognition
|
| Company: | Microscan Systems Inc. |
| Optical Character Recognition, commonly known as OCR, is distinct from linear and 2D symbologies in
that it is simultaneously machine-readable and human-readable. OCR does not replace the more robust,
secure options of linear and 2D symbologies. For traceability applications, 2D symbols offer the highest
level of data security and reliability, and linear symbols offer an intermediate level of security and reliabil-
ity. OCR alone offers the least. OCR is most effective when used to complement linear and 2D symbols.

Measuring Boiler and Furnace Temperature
|
| Large boilers and furnaces use thermocouples
to monitor temperatures at strategic locations to
locate “hot spots,” identify tube dry-out and tube
blockage conditions, monitor effi ciency and uniformity,
and optimize operations. In some cases,
hundreds of thermocouples are installed. In almost
all cases, the thermocouples are welded into
place, which creates a horrendous problem when
maintenance is needed. |

Maintain Compliance and Ensure Safety through Efficient Label Design
|
| For manufacturers, safety labels on their products have never been more important. Inadequate warnings could have a wide variety of consequences for the manufacturer, its employees and its customers—consequences that range from non-compliance to lawsuits to minor injuries or even death. It goes without saying that just as important is the design and presentation of the safety labels themselves. |

Lovejoy® ROSTA® Tensioner - Power Plant’s Driving Force
|
| Power has no season. Whether summer heat demands air
conditioning or dusky winter evenings call for extra lights
and electric blankets, consumers use electricity. In a coalfired
power plant, equipment must operate 24 / 7. Coal-fired
power plants utilize multiple coal pulverizers to generate
this electricity. Pulverizing coal results in less emissions and
is more efficient use of fuel. Constellation Energy’s H.A.
Wagner power plant in Baltimore, MD, was experiencing
costly downtime, maintenance and material expenses
associated with V-belts on a coal pulverizer drive system. |

Sustainable Packaging and Instapak® Packaging Foams
|
| Company: | Sealed Air Corp. |
| Sustainability has become an important metric in the Protective Packaging
Industry over the past several years. Often seen as an extension of the
“Environmentally Friendly Packaging” efforts from the ‘80’s and ‘90’s, Sustainability is actually much more broadly based and encompasses far greater concerns than landfill avoidance and controlling litter. One term most often used to describe Sustainability is that it is “Holistic” in nature – involving broad based consideration of all of the various elements that go into the process and product. |

Bar Code Readers Increase WIP Visibility for Industrial Appliance Manufacturer
|
| In order to stay ahead in today’s competitive manufacturing environment, effective inventory manage-
ment must extend beyond the warehouse and include real-time monitoring of work-in-process inventory
as well. When a large manufacturer of industrial electronic appliances decided it was time to implement
a data-driven production line system in their China-based facilities, they set out to achieve very specifi c
goals. The automated component traceability system needed to provide a complete manufacturing history
of each unit and the visibility required to optimize production line effi ciency.
